Everton news: Rafael Benitez sacked after less than seven months in charge
Everton have dismissed Rafael Benitez as manager after less than seven months in charge. The Spaniard was appointed at Goodison Park in June, replacing Carlo Ancelotti who left to join Real Madrid. However, that didn’t prove to be a good decision as the Toffees struggled massively to perform under the former Valencia manager. The Blues are currently 16th in the Premier League standings, wining only one of their previous 13 league matches. The Merseyside club reportedly held an emergency board meeting on Saturday to talk about the future of Benitez after their latest 2-1 defeat at Norwich City. And now they have released an official statement confirming the sacking of the 61-year-old boss. Appointing Benitez wasn’t a very popular decision...

James Rodriguez was seen as quite a coup when he first joined Everton, but the 30-year-old now has an uncertain future at Goodison Park after an eventful summer – James followed Carlo Ancelotti to Everton last season but saw his ex-Real Madrid manager return to the Santiago Bernabeu this summer. The Colombian international told ESPN in April that Ancelotti was the only reason he joined the Toffees, so things were up in the air following his departure in June.

James may have been open to a move away from Everton if it was a step up than step down, but he...

Report shares why Moshiri didn’t stop £250k-a-wk man from leaving Everton
Carlo Ancelotti left Everton on the first day of this month to return to Real Madrid, and the Toffees have yet to find a replacement. The Italian was earning £1 million per month at Goodison Park, and his decision to leave stunned Everton owner Farhadi Moshiri. Ancelotti and the club were already discussing transfer plans for the summer before he walked away, and The Sun has shared why Moshiri did not put up a fight to stop him. With three years still to run on his contract before his departure, the exit enabled the Everton owner to cut salary costs, saving £36m as a result. The Toffees lost £240m in the past two years and are lurching towards a cash crisis if they do not slash more off the wage bill. Ancelotti was well aware of the financial situation at Goodison Park, and one reason why ...
